Internally codenamed the F1-R, the F70 was designed as a road-going version of an F1 car. The philosophy behind this new downsized and lightweight hypercar is derived from 2007’s Millechilli concept. Although little more than a fibreglass model, it demonstrated Ferrari’s aim to increase the performance of future models by shedding weight. Millechilli, which means 1,000kg in Italian, is the F70’s kerbweight. This is a full 365kg less than the Enzo, and considerably lighter than the FXX. The body itself is that of a Ferrari Le Mans car; to keep the design identical but to comply with stringent safety regulations, the F70 employs special carbon composites strong enough to resist common crashes while getting rid of un-aerodynamic bumpers.
